Fourth  Edition.    12mo,  polished  calf,  gilt  back,  gilt  top,  uncut,  by

OF  EXCESSIVE  RARITY,  NO   COPY  BEING  RECORDED  AS   HAVING   OCCURRED  AT 

AUCTION.  THIS  WORK  WAS  VIGOROUSLY  SUPPRESSED  on  account  of  one  of 
the  ribald  poems,  "The  Wedding  Night.'-'  While  designated  on  the  title 
as  the  ' '  Fourth  Edition "  it  is  not  improbable  that  this  is  THE  FIRST  AND 
SOLE  EDITION.  We  are  unable  to  locate  this  rarity  in  any  of  the  bibliog- 
raphies consulted,  and  the  only  mention  found  is  in  Davidson's  "History 
of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  State  of  Kentucky,"  and  this  same 
edition  is  the  one  cited. 

On  account  of  the  ephemeral  nature  of  the  work  it  is  not  surprising 
that  the  present  copy  should  have  been  repaired  in  some  of  the  leaves, 
with  a  few  words  affected,  but  it  is  nevertheless  in  REMARKABLE  UNCUT 
CONDITION,  and  not  improbably  the  only  copy  which  may  appear  for  many 
years.
